Later printing of Hemingway's first major novel published as Fiesta in the United Kingdom. Octavo, original cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "To Jack Lonsdale with best wishes Ernest Hemingway Ritz 10/9/56." On this date, Hemingway was in Madrid for a bull fight with his wife Mary. Very good in a very good price-clipped dust jacket, owner name. Rare and desirable signed and inscribed. The Sun Also Rises was published by Scribner's in 1926, and a year later in the United Kingdom by Jonathan Cape under the title Fiesta. Though it initially received mixed reviews, it is now "recognized as Hemingway's greatest work" (Meyers, 1985). The fictional plot depicts a love story between war-wounded and impotent Jake Barnes and the promiscuous divorcà e Lady Brett Ashley, but the novel is a roman à clef; the characters are based on real people and the action is based on real events. Hemingway proposes that the "Lost Generation," considered to have been decadent, dissolute and irretrievably damaged by World War I, was resilient and strong. Naturally, themes of love, death, renewal in nature, and the nature of masculinity are heavily investigated. For example, the characters engage in bull-fighting, which is presented as an idealized drama: The matador faces death and, in so doing, creates a moment of existential nothingness, broken when he vanquishes the possibility of death by killing the bull (Stoltzfus, 2005). The Sun Also Rises is seen as an iconic modernist novel for future generations (Mellow, 1992), although it has been emphasized that Hemingway was not philosophically a modernist (Reynolds, 1990). "The Sun Also Rises is Hemingway's masterpiece--one of them, anyway--and no matter how many times you've read it or how you feel about the manners and morals of the characters, you won't be able to resist its spell. This is a classic that really does live up to its reputation" (David Laskin).

No Binding. Zustand: Near Fine. We can only quote a small portion of this letter, for full details please contact us. MILLER, HENRY. (1891-1980). American novelist; author whose Bohemian lifestyle and autobiographical novels broke existing literary forms. Remarkable and highly important Autograph Letter Signed, H.V.M. , on imprinted Hotel-Restaurant de Grenoble et de Savoie stationery. Eight full pages, quarto. Aix-en-Provence, October 6, 192[8]. Folds strengthened with old scotch tape [stable] and edges show some chipping. To Dear Mr. Elkus . Miller writes: I believe I sent you my last letter from Avignon. Though not so very far away from that town we seem to have covered a lot of territory. Are you following us on your map as we move from town to town? If you are, you can see that we went from Avignon to Arles, from there to Martigne, and then to Marseille. Today we arrived here in Aix, which is a most interesting place of about 35,000 inhabitants, founded 124 B.C. and once the old capital of old Provence, the country of the troubadours. Here there are fountains everywhere with different kinds of mineral water, hot or cold, right in the street. People come with bug buckets to get a supply. It is a little out of the season and everything is tranquil, sedate, and somber. It is very beautiful and very mild. The trees are green deep green olives and grapes are growing, and there is loads of sunshine. Here Emile Zola was born, and Paul Cezanne, the greatest painter of modern times. And yet we are only about 20 miles away from Marseille, which is so utterly different that you would hardly believe the two cities belonged to the same country, much less the same department , which, by the way, is named Bouches du Rhome meaning the mouths of the Rhone , as the Rhone is very big, very powerful and empties into the Mediterranean through eight months. We stayed three days in Marseille and I got ill from the filthy water. I took a third of a glassful in my wine the first day, being very thirsty, and that little bit was enough to upset my stomach completely. However, we managed to take in most of the city. It is beyond all doubt one of the most notorious holes in the world. An international seaport, full of Americans, Turks, Arabs, Greeks, Spaniards, Senegalese, bums, thieves, fakers, pimps, whores, grand whores, and whatnot. The whole city smells bad and it contains about a half million people. The sea itself is wonderful, and the boats, etc. A marvelous spot, surrounded by volcanic mountains that look white, blue, gray and purple in different shades of light. But the city itself is a cesspool. I don t know how to describe it. You know how some of the worst streets on the East Side look. Well, imagine that and then increase the misery, the stench, the poverty, the degradation, the vice, the disease, etc. Last night we took a walk through the red light district what is really old Marseille and we were damned lucky that we had an interpreter with us or we might not have come out of the damned city alive. The whores and pimps just crowded around us like buzzards (despite the fact that June was along) and started pulling us one way and another, each one trying to drag us into their particular den. The street was full of dumber sailors, stevedores, floaters of all nationalities, and they were amused at our predicament. For the first time since being here in Europe I was thoroughly scared. Such a hole. A filthy narrow street, on each side, little cubby holes exposed to public view, in which you could see a bed and a dresser with a kerosene oil lamp on it. In front of the open door sat the mistress of the place, calling out to all comers to step inside. White, yellow, black, old, crippled, diseased it made no difference. And when you try to pass them by they grab your hat or tug at you by the coat tail or make a circle around you until you go mad. I was never so god damned sore, disgusted and bewildered in my life.

First edition, first printing, first issue with the misprints "stoppped" on p. 181, l. 26, "down-staris" on p. 169, line 34, and the third book being designated as "BOOK THREE" instead of "BOOK III" (p. [235]). Hemingway's second novel is a roman à clef, drawing on his and Hadley's tumultuous time in France in the 1920s."The Sun Also Rises did not rock the country, but it received a number of hat-in-the-air reviews and it soon became a handbook of conduct for the new generation. how much of the novel seems as marvelously fresh as when it first appeared! Count Mippipopolous, his wound, and his champagne; the old couple from Montana on their first trip abroad; the busload of Basque peasants; the whole beautiful episode of the fishing trip in the mountains, in the harsh sunlight, with bright water tumbling over the dam; then by contrast the dark streets of Pamplona crowded with riau-riau dancers, who formed a circle round Brett as if she were a revered witch as indeed she was, and as Jake in a way was the impotent Fisher King ruling over a sterile land in all this there is nothing that has gone bad and not a word to be changed after so many years. It is all carved in stone, bigger and truer than life; and it is the work of a man who, having ended his busy term of apprenticeship, was already a master at twenty-six" (Cowley). Grissom A.6.1.a; Hanneman 6A; Cowley, A Second Flowering, pp. 70-3. Octavo.

In fine condition. The Sun Also Rises was published by Scribner's in 1926, and a year later in the United Kingdom by Jonathan Cape under the title Fiesta. Though it initially received mixed reviews, it is now "recognized as Hemingway's greatest work" (Meyers, 1985). The fictional plot depicts a love story between war-wounded and impotent Jake Barnes and the promiscuous divorcà e Lady Brett Ashley, but the novel is a roman à clef; the characters are based on real people and the action is based on real events. Hemingway proposes that the "Lost Generation," considered to have been decadent, dissolute and irretrievably damaged by World War I, was resilient and strong. Naturally, themes of love, death, renewal in nature, and the nature of masculinity are heavily investigated. For example, the characters engage in bull-fighting, which is presented as an idealized drama: The matador faces death and, in so doing, creates a moment of existential nothingness, broken when he vanquishes the possibility of death by killing the bull (Stoltzfus, 2005).
